I am purchasing my fist 27' above ground pool. My neighbor, who has a pool, told me to get a 2 speed pump (low/high speed). They say that they run theirs 24/7 on low speed, which cost less money for electricity. Wondering if this is true. I am wondering if this is a good way to go - low for when I want to run longer (looking at "Aquacomfort" electric pool heater - they say run filter 24/7 in beginning of season to get pool water up to desired temp, then switch to 8 hrs a day) and the turn filter to high speed and run 8 hrs a day on high speed.

Any opinions/advise greatly appreciated - want to make the right purchase.
